The Quantra QPlus System is composed of the Quantra Hemostasis Analyzer, QPlus Cartridge, and Quantra Quality Controls Level 1 and 2. The Quantra QPlus System is intended for in vitro diagnostic use.

The Quantra Hemostasis Analyzer uses Sonic Estimation of Elasticity via Resonance (SEER) Sonorheometry, an ultrasound-based technology, to measure the shear modulus of whole blood during coagulation. The QPlus Cartridge is a multi-channel cartridge that provides semi-quantitative indications of the coagulation state of a 3.2% citrated venous whole blood sample. The QPlus Cartridge includes tests to assess coagulation characteristics via the intrinsic pathway, via the extrinsic pathway, and includes tests with a heparin neutralizer.

The system is intended to be used by trained professionals at the point-of-care and in clinical laboratories to evaluate the viscoelastic properties of whole blood by means of the following functional parameters: Clot Time (CT), Clot Time with Heparinase (CTH), Clot Stiffness (CS), Fibrinogen Contribution to Clot Stiffness (FCS), Platelet Contribution to Clot Stiffness (PCS) and Clot Time Ratio (CTR).

The Quantra QPlus System is indicated for the evaluation of blood coagulation in perioperative patients age 18 years and older to assess possible hypocoagulable and hypercoagulable conditions in cardiovascular or major orthopedic surgeries before, during, and following the procedure.

Results obtained with the Quantra QPlus System should not be the sole basis for patient diagnosis.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
